Critic Reviews
Show All-
Rolling Stone
it’s hard not to hear Welcome Home as an anxious defense of fame and fortune, a reactionary right-turn in response to the mixed reviews the band received for their most
-
Sounds Like Nashville
the album harkens back to the band’s early career but it was those sing-along anthems that built their ever-growing fan base.
-
Slant Magazine
it’s almost immediately apparent that these songs lack the lyrical and thematic edge and creativity of recent work
-
Saving Country
Welcome Home doesn’t improve on what Zac Brown Band has always been, but it gets them back to their authentic identity.
-
Country Exclusive
If Zac Brown’s heart lies in EDM music, or rock music, or anywhere outside his roots, then that’s where he should be, and I’m starting to think that despite this album’s name, home might not be where he wants to be anymore.
-
Entertainment Focus
Welcome Home is sure to delight Zac Brown Band fans.
-
PopMatters
Welcome Home is a beautiful record, full of imagery and experiences, and a worthy return to the style that made Zac Brown Band’s debut as successful as it was.
-
All Music
it's hard to shake the feeling that the Zac Brown Band overplay their hand somewhat by insisting they've reconnected with their roots.
-
Your Life in a Song
he felt a duty to re-pay the loyalty his fans have shown to the band throughout their slightly experimental, off-the-rails period and he’s delivered a more-than-adequate collection of songs that will be received well by fans and critics alike.
-
Off the Bench
A good album gets better with each listen.
-
Critically Country
I find this to be a solid album overall and surely one of the best mainstream albums that will be released all year.
-
Reckless Press
if we’re going to get a solid, grounded country record, this is something the Zac Brown Band can do well
-
Entertainment Weekly
where many of the Nashville kings keep their thrones slinging tunes about trucks and hot young things in cutoffs, the matured perspective here is as delicious as the melodies Brown backs it with.
-
Cleveland
just that it pales in the quality of the writing and lyrics that followed.
-
Renowned for Sound
It is not until halfway through Welcome Home that the Zac Brown Band start to inject some colour and character back into their music with the upbeat Family Table.
-
My Kind of Country
This is less of a return to form than I had hoped, and there are few standout moments
